Does anyone have "Record of American Uniform & Historical Buttons" by albert

Does anyone have a "Record of American Uniform & Historical Buttons" by albert FROM 1997 that they maybe willing to sell. I have found a couple online from 1976 and one from 1997 but it was 100 dollars.

You'd do yourself a favor, and save a buck by buying the Tice book instead of the one above. Tice is newer, with more buttons, and better information.

Cheers,

I just got a used copy of Albert's book for $54 in great condition. It covers earlier buttons than the Tice book, but is not nearly as thorough as it for CW era buttons.

Keep your eyes open for a copy. They turn up every now and then for under $50.

I got mine a couple years ago for $40. The guy I bought it from, Doug, at Land and Sea Treasure has it for sale for $45.95. He is a great guy to deal with.

I have both. Now, if I just knew how to use them correctly. My next book purchase will be Mason and McKee's
Civil War Projectiles II; Small Arms & Field Artillery, with Supplement. I should be totally confused then!

My wife bought me a 1969 first edition autographed last year. Are the 1976 and 1997 just reprints? Or where updates/edits made?

I think they were just reprints. That's because there wasn't another button book that was anywhere near as good until Tice. I own both books.
